Case study: How Brussels Airport optimized stand and gate assignments

Brussels Airport handles over 750 aircraft movements and 63,000 passengers in a day.

During busy periods, the availability of airbridges for passengers to board and disembark is scarce. Planes need to park at a distance, causing an inconvenience to passengers, additional bussing costs for airlines, and creating a higher risk of knock-on delays.

Rather than spend millions of dollars to expand the infrastructure, Brussels Airport sought to maximize the use of existing resources.
